[ flowers, graphics or leopard ]


Printed trousers.... not the easiest trend to pull of, I think, but these ladies know how to do it.
To combine a print with black is the safest way to go, but I do admire those who dare to combine it with other prints and colours, e.g. like Olivia Palermo (2nd row right) who combines her flower print trousers with a mustard-yellow top & leopard pumps!

[ a little touch.... ]

I'm often impressed what a (little) piece of leopard print can do... it adds instantly a cool touch to any outfit, don't you think?
But with or without the print, with this bag nobody can go wrong ;)

[ white boots ]


I find it difficult when it comes to white shoes..... but when I saw the MILWAUKE boots from Isabel Marant all my doubts were gone! How rock'n'roll are those booties! 
I love to wear boots in summer (yes really), so these could be perfect.....

[ ... BE A QUEEN ]

"Don't be a drag, just be a queen" - a very royal & magical editorial of the i-D magazine spring issue. Majestic & grand but with a touch of gladiator, studs and leather. And let's not forget the fierce accessories!
Garments from labels like Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen, Lanvin, Givenchy, Roberto Cavalli, etc.

[ TORN ]


I like a jeans jacket with a certain twist... and I'm looking for one that has that certain "je ne sais quoi"!
So when I came across those images I instantly knew that could be it....... this distressed denim jacket "Fever Torn" is by Swedish brand ACNE. Love it.

[ french style ]



I like the cool & simple look of GERALDINE SAGLIO, stylist & assistant to Vogue Paris's Emmanuelle Alt. 
Her style so french! ... but that's what makes the french girls so fashionable I guess ;)

[ not just for men.... ]


Yes, ladies, unbelievable that this is supposed to be a men's bag.... because I'm sure you'll love it as much as I do! 
I actually really like that there is a touch of masculinity & not much fuss, just leather and some silver hardware.
The iconic interlocking YSL logo as straps is just so cool & what a good idea to integrate the letters in a playful way. 
By the way the YSL logo was originally designed by legendary French typographer Cassandre in 1961.
I could definitely see this bag in my or any other girls' wardrobe.....

[ BULLET proof ]

"Burning bridges shore to shore
I'll break away from something more
I'm not to not to love until it's cheap.

Been there done that messed around 
I'm having fun don't put me down, 
I'll never let you sweep me off my feet.  

This time baby I'll be bulletproof 
This time baby I'll be bulletproof" 
La Roux

[ love your place ]


I'm getting very excited when I can get a sneak peek into a girls apartment like ERIN WASSON, I think she's more than "just a model", I so admire all her work (her jewelry line - love love love) & personal style. So voila... here a few pictures of her home, lofty & cool with some pretty unique pieces. She has good taste not only when it comes down to clothes.... I admire a place like this with a very personal touch!
